Bleeding/spotting 5 weeks FET

9 replies

IVFforbabyB · 18/03/2022 23:49

Hi ladies, I had my first FET on the 1st March and had a BFP at 11dp5dt. The thing is I’ve been spotting/bleeding since 9dp5dt and still am now at 5 weeks+1. I’ve had my beta tests and they’ve risen as they should do. I even had a scan yesterday where they found the pregnancy sack plus yolk. But even with this reassurance I’m still convinced there’s something wrong. I’m worried about the bleeding but I’m also cramping. I don’t have sore boobs or any other real symptoms. I’m driving myself mad and just looking to hear from other experiences as I have to wait till Monday to phone the clinic. Does anyone have any positive similar stories?! Thank you x

I don't have any experiences to share but everything seems positive. My clinic said that it is not unusual to have some bleeding and mild cramping is a "normal" symptom in the first trimester. Hopefully as things progress you'll feel better. I'm in a similar position 4w + 5d and I am over analysing everything Smile

Have you had your progesterone levels checked? I would do that as soon as you can if not.

I had a major bleeding episode at 6 weeks and cramping. I thought I was losing the 4th Ivf pregnancy, I knew all the signs an it’s was exactly the same I was devastated but a scan at the miscarriage clinic revealed all was well. I could not believe you could bleed like that an everything be fine! He’s 9 months now. Try an stay positive, yolk sac and rising hormone levels sounds great. Sending hugs xxx

Hi my lovely,
I had a FET and my BFP on 5th July. I’m now 5w + 2 day and had some red blood on my pants and when when I wiped. Nothing since then. I called the nurse at the clinic she said to early to check so I have to wait till my week 7 scan. I am worried.. she said ivf cycles usually have some bleeding and to carry on with my progesterone pessaries and estrofen tablets. I hope all is okay xxx

Hi ladies, I just want to reply in case anyone else finds this thread. I was so mentally consumed by this spotting/bleeding but I am now 21+3 weeks and baby looked fine at the 20 week scan! Every time I had spotting/bleeding, I was checked out and baby looked fine, I was told it’s likely my cervix was irritated by the progesterone pessaries I was taking. Thank you for your messages. I can’t believe how common bleeding is in early pregnancy xxx
